1988 Canada Proof Set was issued by the Royal Canadian Mint and features the commemorative Saint-Maurice Ironworks Silver Dollar. Struck in exceptional proof quality, this set includes all seven Canadian circulation denominations from 1 Cent to 1 Dollar, presented in original Royal Canadian Mint packaging.

The highlight of the set is the 1988 Saint-Maurice Ironworks Silver Dollar, struck in .500 fine silver, commemorating one of Canada’s earliest industrial sites. Founded in 1730 near Trois-Rivières, Quebec, the Forges du Saint-Maurice played a vital role in early Canadian manufacturing and economic development. The reverse design depicts a historic ironworker scene, honoring Canada’s industrial heritage.

Proof coins are struck multiple times using specially prepared dies and polished blanks, producing deep mirrored fields and frosted devices with exceptional detail and contrast.
